- Go an DL both demos online. After playing both demos a few times I found that 2k8 is much easier to play. I think i scored 4-6 pts in the first qtr of live vs 12-14 in 2k8. I picking mine up based on price. If craiglsist has a copy for 30-40 i'll take either one.
- It all depends on what you like. NBA 2K8 is an excellent game, but so is NBA Live. NBA Live 08 is a major improvement over the last installment, but NBA 2K8 is still ahead for the time being in terms of simulative experience. Plus the Association is much deeper than Live's dynasty mode. Sweat dripping can be seeing on all player faces in each game. Base your sole decision on what you plan on doing with the game. Will you tend to play this game with your friends, or play the game, alone in various modes such as Assocation, Season, etc. Also, NBA 2k8 added a very innovative feature, Slam Dunk Contest, which is leaps and bounds ahead of anythign NBA Live is currently offering. Good luck!
